Perhaps not. But the reality is that Russia sucks at all levels and tries really hard to stay relevant by behaving like raging idiots.

It should have been very simple. Don’t install that crap. Keep it safe and secure by design, but no. Then after installing, at any time, you should be able to select the “AI” versions of programs and deselect if you don’t want it anymore. Want AI in your Notepad [Check On->Install Notepad.AI]. Want AI in your calculator [Check Off]. Want AI in your File Explorer [Check On–>Explorer.AI]. Want AI in your Email [Check Off]. Want advertisements and “recommendations” [Check on --> Annoyances.AI]. Want to reset every setting after an “update” [Check Off]. Want to upload all your personal folders to the MS servers [Check On–> Cloud.AI, Surveillance.AI, AllYourShitBelongsToUsNow.AI]. Should not be hard… but it is. What a waste.

We, on the other hand, don’t accept Russian troops in a sovereign Ukraine. And actually don’t accept Putin in general.

Basically don’t know how to interpret “autobrowse” in any other way. Bit like “autopilot”, you “should” have the hands on the steering wheel but…

It will handle your socials, chats, your agenda, your website, your credit card, your vacations, your photos from the moment of activation to well after death…

Outsourced intelligence causes better obedience… Who knows better how to think, puzzle, do, scrutinize…

A World of Puppets. Let’s call them Woppers.

Yet (or thus) I agree with: “It must decide on its own. So I think AI is very important for the nation’s deep space exploration.”

Waiting for something like: “wasn’t us, it was copilot acting on its own”

Playing pretense again with a shape.

It only takes a vague input of a problem, and too much trust in the AI to maximize the goal and minimize the error. Issues start when the solutions [suggestive chatgpt, battle strategies, load balancing systems, administrative criteria] are followed blindly so that unintended consequences can flourish afterwards.

Although transparency may also create some doubt in political decision-making it’s necessary for checks & balances and even accountability if things go too far. When this drops, accountability drops.

When AI gets globally controlled by one, or maybe two large monolithic shareholder companies who decides what gets filtered, what data gets used, what is right and wrong then thus is simply too much power in the wrong hands. You get a corporatocratic dystopia on a global scale.
